Appendices Barton Springs/Edwards DRAFT HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN AND PRELIMINARY DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STUDY Volume Two - Appendices Prepared By Barton Springs/Edwards Aquifer Conservation District For U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service August 2007 APPENDIX A Participating Individuals and Organizations Appendix A Appendix A Participating Individuals and Organizations A.1 Citizens Advisory Committee The passage of Senate Bill 1272 during the 76th Texas Legislature in 1999 requires the District to appoint a Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) to assist in preparing the regional HCP. The purpose of the CAC is to advise the District in development of the HCP, assist in determination of the scope of the HCP, recommend mitigation measures and other HCP conditions, provide a forum for public discourse and conflict reconciliation, help meet public disclosure requirements, oversee HCP progress and development, and most importantly, build consensus among diverse organizations and interests. Accordingly, the CAC was appointed by the District in a manner to assure representation by all affected interests in the Edwards Aquifer region. Participants include private landowners, irrigators, water purveyors, conservation and environmental organizations, private consultants, representatives from major cities, federal, state, and local governmental agencies, and universities. Members of the Citizens Advisory Committee as of July 2007 are listed in Table A-1, below. A.2 Biological Advisory Team The passage of Senate Bill 1272 (referenced above) also requires that the District, together with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission and landowner members of the Citizens Advisory Committee [CAC], appoint a Biological Advisory Team [BAT], at least one member of which shall be appointed by the Commission and one member by the landowner members of the Citizens Advisory Committee. The member appointed by the Commission serves as presiding officer of the team. The team shall assist in the calculation of harm to the endangered species and the sizing and configuring of habitat preserves, as needed. The District has appointed a seven-member committee to fulfill this function. Members of the Biological Advisory Team are listed in Table A-1. Draft A-1 08/2007 Appendix A Table A-1.

  • The History and Bottles of the Soft Drink Industry in El Paso, Texas
    Bottles on the Border: The History and Bottles of the Soft Drink Industry in El Paso, Texas, 1881-2000 © Bill Lockhart 2010 [Revised Edition – Originally Published Online in 2000] Chapter 10a Chapter 10a Nehi Bottling Co., Nehi-Royal Crown Bottling Co., and Royal Crown Bottling Co. Bill Lockhart The Nehi Bottling Co. arrived at El Paso in 1931. A decade later, the owners renamed the company Nehi-Royal Crown to reflect its popular cola drink. The name, Nehi, was dropped in favor of its younger, still more popular Royal Crown Cola in 1965. In 1970 the company merged with The Seven-Up Bottling Co. of El Paso (in business in El Paso since 1937) to join forces against the two giants of the industry, Coke (Magnolia Coca-Cola Co.) and Pepsi (Woodlawn Bottling Co.), who were engulfing the sales market. The growing company bought out the Canada Dry Bottling Co. that had been in business since 1948. The triple company was in turn swallowed by a newcomer to El Paso, Kalil Bottling Co. of Tucson, Arizona, the firm that continues to distribute products from all three sources in 2010. 391 Nehi Bottling Co. (1931-1941) History Nehi originated with the Chero-Cola Co., started in Columbus, Georgia, by Claude A. Hatcher in 1912. Twelve years later, in 1924, the company initiated Nehi flavors and became the Nehi Corp. soon afterward (Riley 1958:264). The El Paso plant, a subsidiary of the Nehi Bottling Co. of Phoenix, Arizona, opened at 1916 Myrtle Ave. in April 1931, under the direction of Rhea R.

  • Exhibit 99.1 Holden Hills Release 4.27.21
    NEWS RELEASE NASDAQ Symbol: “STRS” Stratus Properties Inc. Financial and Media Contact: 212 Lavaca St., Suite 300 William H. Armstrong III Austin, Texas 78701 (512) 478-5788 STRATUS PROPERTIES INC. ANNOUNCES HOLDEN HILLS, A NEW RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT IN BARTON CREEK Project to Feature 475 Home Sites with a Focus on Design Sustainability Last and Best Residential Opportunity in the Barton Creek Community –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– AUSTIN, TX, April 28, 2021 - Stratus Properties Inc. (NASDAQ: STRS) (“Stratus” or the “Company”) today announced plans for Holden Hills, its final residential development within the Barton Creek community, which the Company has been developing for more than 30 years. Located 10 minutes southwest of downtown Austin, off of the Southwest Parkway, Holden Hills consists of 495 acres of classic, Hill Country escarpment abutting the Barton Creek Greenbelt. The new community is designed to feature 475 unique residences in multiple phases, and the development will focus on sustainability, energy conservation and wellness, both inside and outside of the home. William H. Armstrong III, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our buyer demographic is very focused on health and wellness and impact on the environment. Holden Hills is premised on sustainable luxury with a particular focus on high-performing building systems to reduce carbon use, non-toxic building materials for a healthier indoor space and proximity to natural amenities like the Barton Creek Greenbelt for outdoor recreation. Our research shows that consumers are increasingly linking their internal and external environments to their overall health – and the misconception that you must sacrifice design and construction quality to achieve these goals is simply not true.
